Ethnic Artwork
"In one's own life experience, circumstances do not always allow us to outrun or steer clear of precarious situations. However, this work reveals the intrepid characteristic in all of us that regardless of whatever comes to surface we will not give up. This is especially true during our own present time of serious turbulence."
"A display of my graphic skills using pen and ink, pencils, and charcoals altogether in a mixed media format in an effort to highlight the rich heritage of African people.  The artwork includes a nuance look at the silhouette of the African continent.  There is a mass integration of various elements that reflect height in Mt. Kilimanjaro, depth in the tribal chieftain, power in the elephant and rhinoceros, gracefulness in the leopard, etc. - all within the mind and body of The Africano."
"There are many artists that have attempted the colossal task of painting this world-famous location of North America’s highest waterfall located in Yosemite National Park in California.  All these artists have experienced the ever-changing conditions, but I feel I have captured the falls with the optimum lighting.  And although people may actually see this location differently, all will recognize this scene.  I took pain-staking time and called on all my technical skills and perception to paint this work of art."
